Apply now for spring 2016 financial aid at CBC

Coastal Bend College (CBC) students who are interested in enrolling in the spring 2016 semester should apply for financial aid soon. Registration for spring 2016 courses is set to open in October at all CBC locations and online.

Applying for Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is submitted online at www.fafsa.gov. Prospective students who wish to have their application sent to any of CBC’s location should use the school 003546.

Financial Aid Director Nora Morales and her team of financial aid advisors are available to help students one-on-one, via email or phone, “We cannot stress enough the importance of applying early. Once a student’s aid is awarded, they are able to pay for their classes and books to start off their semester on the right foot. Ultimately, we just want to help them succeed and remove any financial barriers to their education.”

The financial aid application process at CBC generally takes two weeks to process from the date the student submits the application online. Additional paperwork or information may be necessary, so students should check their mailbox and email regularly for correspondence from the College.
